Project Update: π Achievement Celebration & Design Voting! π
π CONGRATULATIONS, WILD ONES! π
We've reached our 80% funding achievement, unlocking the ability for you to vote on the next WildnCrafty Companion plush design! Voting begins now, and it will last for the rest of Kidd Krampus' campaign, concluding on february 3rd.
Please note that this is a Backer Only poll. However, there is a $1 "Thank You" pledge level, so hopefully, everyone who wishes to vote can participate!
I had initially planned to release Bebe Baphomet and Mothman's character information over the next few days, but I would say that it's needed now! Since I will be adding information for two updates, this will be a little lengthy, so bear with me!

Bebe Baphomet ππ₯
This design draws its inspiration from Γliphas LΓ©viβs 1856 illustration, the 'Sabbatic Goat.' Bebe shares the same flame atop their head, symbolizing the pursuit of knowledge, and two pointed fingers on each hand. Additionally, Bebe sports a charming pair of pants, featuring a hole in the back for their goat tail.
In terms of personality, Bebe Baphomet delights in learning and sharing intriguing tales and topics unknown to their friends. They particularly enjoy hosting campfire get-togethers, using it as an excuse to narrate these tales dramatically.
Bebe is crafted to inspire the student within us, embodying the joy of knowledge, regardless of the subject. Beyond just sharing stories, they love to listen and absorb the tales you have to tell!
Should Bebe win the "Next Plush" poll, you'll have the opportunity to vote on the following design choices:
Β π₯ Palette - Currently featuring a purple and red-toned palette, I've been considering a more gargoyle-like look. Your decision will make the final call!
Β π₯ Props - While they already have lovely pants, the choice of additional props is still up in the air. Your input is invaluable!
As a reminder, you can snag Bebe's sticker for free by following the Kidd Krampus BackerKit project and backing Krampus at any level!
Mothman π‘π¦
It's time to unveil the much-anticipated Mothman plush! This character's design closely aligns with the classic Mothman look, infused with a charming chibi touch. What excites me the most about his design are the possibilities it holds. I envision a future Mothman line where his coloring mirrors actual moths, like the Luna moth.
Mothman's character is intriguingly enigmatic; he seems to harbor no thoughts and yet encompasses every thought simultaneously. I will be seeking your assistance in defining his hobby. While he shows affection for lamps, is lamp truly his favorite hobby? Perhaps the art of flying captivates him more, or considering his proximity to disasters, is he a primo sleuth?
Mothman is fluffy all over and boasts thick, lovely antennae. While he currently has no accessories, this is something we could potentially vote on. Alternatively, we could draw inspiration from the hobby you choose. Or, he could come as is and be ready for other WildnCrafty Companion accessories you might have, like Krampusβ jingle bell choker!
If Mothman wins the "Next Plush" poll, here's what you'll be considering for design choices that you get to vote on:
Β π₯ Name - I canβt decide on the perfect name for Mothman; can you help?
Β π₯ Hobby - Mothman has so much love to give; he simply canβt decide on a favorite hobby. Will you help him decide?

Wendi refresher...
If Wendi wins the "Next Plush" poll, here's what you'll be considering for design choices that you get to vote on:
Β π¦ Accessories - She already has the skull mask, but what other accessories would she have? Perhaps a flower crown?
Β π¦ Props - Options include an herbalism journal or bones of those trampled her woods.
